Shipping to Toronto would be $5.55 ? ($7.49 + Shipping $5.55 = $13.04)

This would be a hot deal if there was free shipping

Just for reference, you can get from Amazon.ca - $16.06 -100ft CAT6

Contact them via their Facebook page, they will easily issue you the refund. Their customer service is usually brilliant.

For anybody thinking of upgrading from Cat5e, there's no point for such a short cable. Even 10 Gbps won't saturate Cat5e at 50', and we're years away from ordinary peopel having 10 Gbps home networks. You'll probably be dead by the time a 50' Cat5e becomes a bottleneck.

This is perfect. I needed some stranded CAT6 for patch panel cables. Much cheaper than me having to buy 500 ft bulk.

Ahh, didn't see that I had to put my postal code first in order for the pickup in store to pop up, thank you!

description says 100ft, but dropdown menu from 0.5 to 150ft, quite confusing.

Amazon learned that trick from sellers ... they usually list a cell phone for $19.99 but they include a "case" in the dropdown that satisfies "lowest price requirement" (the case is $19.99 but the cell phone is $129.99).

You'll also see several products grouped into one amazon listing for favourable review purposes, or for "satisfied" customers or star-reviews. Read enough reviews, and you'll notice they aren't for the particular "focused" object being sold.

You are fairly off on that claim.
5e will max out a 500 mbps most of the time. I've been using 5e for the last 10 years and monitor the transfer speeds. You will rarely get 1 gbps on 5e cables.

There is a chance you lucked on out good 5e cables.
